Documenting War Crimes: Lee Mordechai’s Report on Atrocities Committed by Israeli Forces in Gaza

Israel (Transatlantic Today) – Israeli historian Lee Mordechai has compiled a comprehensive report documenting war crimes and atrocities committed by Israeli forces during their military operations in Gaza. His 124-page report, Bearing Witness to the Israel-Gaza War, sheds light on shocking acts, including killings, torture, and targeted assaults on civilians, highlighting a pattern of genocide.

Mordechai’s work, based on eyewitness testimonies, photographs, videos, and materials recorded by Israeli soldiers, reveals disturbing details of Israel’s actions in Gaza. Among the most horrifying accounts are videos showing the killing of civilians waving white flags, soldiers looting, and the systematic destruction of homes and hospitals.

The historian’s detailed report challenges the Israeli government’s narrative, providing clear evidence of war crimes and confirming the toll on Gaza’s civilian population. With over 44,500 Palestinians dead, Mordechai calls these actions a deliberate attempt to erase a community, fitting the definition of genocide as laid out in international law.

The report not only focuses on military actions but also examines the role of media in shaping Western perceptions, asserting that Israeli propaganda has facilitated the violence. Mordechai argues that the genocide in Gaza is not defined by gas chambers but by systematic acts aimed at the destruction of a people.

As the war rages on, Mordechai’s efforts to document these atrocities remain an essential resource for understanding the full scope of the conflict.
